And all of the demon bosses suck ass (one of them has broken hitboxes and a fuckton of health, another one forces you to fight on a tiny space 'cause the area is filled with lava, and the last one? Its just another lazy-ass reskin of the first boss).

@joacimtorneus 7 лет назад

Mindblowing to see the Depths that low. They have some of the best level design in the game, very nonlinear and interconnected, and the atmosphere is exactly what such an area should feel like. If you go without the master key you're challenged to find your way to the bonfire instead of just being given one as a freebie. There's plenty of enemy variety between hollows, the butcher, slimes, rats, basilisks, channeler and the giant rat. I guess it must all be due to curse-related PTSD.

I just sat there for like 10 minutes just watching and listening. Truly a magical place

@ed1rko17 7 лет назад

I love the depths. The depths was probably my most memorable gaming experience not even gonna lie. That's when Dark Souls got really dark, and the terror of those toxic frogs... The enemy placement is also fantastic as it's intense and makes you scared each time you turn a corner, which is something that disappeared towards the end of this game. And then the Gaping Dragon is one of the most terrifying bosses in all of video games. The timing of this area is perfect too. It's almost right at the beginning, and I don't ever remember being as nervous as I was going through the Depths in any other gaming experience. Absolutely love The Depths.

@guitaraobscura8802 7 лет назад

@smellslikeangryfish875 7 лет назад

And the fabulous dragon which gives you weird dragon things. Easily my favorite area.

@heatseeker9738 6 лет назад

I think the Great Hollow and Ash Lake are some of the most beautifully designed areas in the game but their biggest problem is that they feel pretty incomplete and kinda pointless. Great Hollow is basically just annoying platforming to get a few unique items, most notably the Chloranthy Ring. And Ash Lake is basically just there for the covenant, which is probably the least popular covenant for PvP in the entire game. Instead of just copypasting another Hydra, I wish they would've put a really difficult dragon boss fight there that you have to defeat in order to gain access to the covenant. Having a boss fight on the shores with that awesome scenery would've been so much more gratifying.

@jangussjohnson1556 4 года назад

that place was a high point for me as well.

@giorgiturmanidze108 3 года назад

Ash lakes visual design is really good. I like the atmosphere and the lore. On the other hand I hate the great hollow, also there's the repeated hydra and those stupid clam people. Oh and the dragon dude is pretty cool.

@jaygiemtg7511 4 года назад

I do too. The only real issue is the toxic dart dudes, but they never respawn after you've killed them. The poison swamp only really slows you down since poison itself is REALLY slow. Granted, I also tend to go with super glass-cannon builds until I kill the Iron Golem in Senn's Fortress, so I can usually kill the enemies quickly enough for them not to be an issue. It really suffers from just being super busy by connecting to the Depths, Valley of Drakes, AND the Demon Ruins, on top of being too dark in some places, and then throwing in the Toxic Darts make it REALLY confusing for first-timers especially. I pretty much always go through Blighttown through the Valley of Drakes with the Master key anyway.

@davepatel8631 2 года назад

Not sure why people like the burg so much. Sure it has good level design. But visually, it is pretty bland and generic, with it being a town/residence area. All the enemies are pretty generic and don’t have anything to them at all. (Except for the hellkite drake surprise and black knights) and the boss is almost the same as asylum demon.

@runningcommentary2125 5 лет назад

I'm playing on the 360 and the only issue I have with it is the frame rate. Well, that and the fact that getting out is easier if you go back up to the Depths rather than taking the lift, at least for me anyway.

Honestly the run up to the first Bonfire is the worst part in my opinion because A, those toxic spitting dick heads and B, it takes a long time getting back to Blighttown from the Depths Bonfire. The rest of Blighttown is kind of a guilty pleasure for me. Lost Izalith and Tomb of the Giants are worse mechanically although Anor Londo gave me a fair bit of shit as well!

Clearly depends on personal experience.

Woo been waiting for this one Demod. Also I know you're a busy man and all but I do have a couple of suggestions for video themes in regard to the optional bosses. There are a lot of optional bosses in SoulsBorne series as you know, especially in Bloodborne so I think it'd be pretty cool if you made a list ranking them either based on like their difficulty, coolness, or whether you should skip fighting them or not. You've probably already thought about this idea but if not you could save this theme for down the road, I look forward to more of your videos and can't wait to see what you have in store for us next.

@Grimscribe732 6 лет назад

Honestly areas like Blighttown, Tomb of the Giants and New Londo Ruins are awesome. They really fit the setting, lore and place they are in the map. If you go deep down in the earth, you'd hardly expect there to be light. If you go into a down below the sewers, well... you'd pretty much expect it to look like Blighttown. New Londo Ruins was just haunting and the atmosphere so eerie, it really felt like a dead place - the lack of bonfires was annoying, sure, but it also fit the whole "dead place" lore so I can't really complain about that either. The only two areas I really am not so fond of are Lost Izalith, which is just a total mess (how did anyone seriously vote for that as "best area"?), and the Demon Ruins, which are not even that bad and just feel unfinished and have some lacking boss fights. That really speaks to the overall quality of the world in DS1.

@ArcaneAzmadi 7 лет назад

"Without further ado, let's jump in with Blighttown." Hah, nice one! I don't even remember how I voted by now, but I am pretty sure I rated Lost Izalith as the worst, but not even that area rated a 1/10. To be honest, Lost Izalith DOES have some content that makes it memorable for good reasons, namely the climaxes of Siegmeyer and Solaire's tragic stories and the final battle with Kirk. Likewise, I was surprised the Depths rated as low as it did, because I actually spent quite a lot of time down there (usually farming Large/Green Titanite Shards from the Slimes outside the bonfire room with Chaos Firestorm), but on reflection it IS boring, irritating (you mentioned the rats, dogs, slimes and torch hollows but COMPLETELY forgot the BASILISKS!) and doesn't really serve any purpose- at least Blighttown serves as the greatest test of your resolve to that point and the area where the game just comes clean and tells you "I hate you and I want you to die". Also, aside from rescuing Laurentius and meeting Domnhall there's NOTHING of any story relevance down there, it's just a transitional area. I do love the boss, though.

How are the depths worse than the Demon Ruins edit: and how does anyone think Blighttown is a worse area than Lost Izalith

@sivahannal9816 6 лет назад

I didn't have too much of a problem with lost izalith, personally. Blighttown sucks dick though. The only big downer in lost izalith is the bed of chaos, which is the most bullshit boss I have ever encountered in Dark Souls.

@MrsSankta 6 лет назад

tbh blighttown is fine but those shitty poison dart spitter .... i fucking hate them

@MrsSankta 6 лет назад

and the little bugs that are too high or too low to actually hit them with a sword

@serosona2322 5 лет назад

ShieldDivision izalith just felt incomplete. It could’ve been so much better

@silentkhaos1176 4 года назад

@ShieldDivision One reason. Dark Souls 1 frame rate drops in upper Blighttown

@Argorok87 7 лет назад

Wow, I'm not saying everyone else is wrong and I'm right, but I was seriously expecting Sen's Funhouse to be within this half of the list. I remember putting it as my least favourite area during the vote, but maybe I'm just unlucky with it. That or I need to git gud.

@kamina_Sea_You_Again 7 лет назад

Great video man and i can respect the placements of all of those areas,in my opinion i despised only 1 area the CrystalCave/Duke's Archive . i just despised this area it always felt like it dragged, nothing else really bothered me in the game because i knew it wouldn't take long,but the Duke's archive always felt like it took forever to get through and no enjoyment in the area either besides aesthetic of course cause the looks are beautiful. but that is just my opinion

I'm a little surprised to see the Depths so far down, honestly. Or maybe I'm just weird for liking the area, I dunno. Anyway, glad to see you continuing these, Demod. :)

@buddykidd5441 7 лет назад

I love blighttown! Well, I hate that I love to hate blighttown. It was a frustrating area to go through but it feels great to reach the ground floor's bonfire.

I can't wait for the ranking video of Dark Souls 2's area list . Mainly because I can't wait for you to roast and get salty on the the Frigid Outskirts (seriously fuck that area).

@JasonDoe1000 7 лет назад

In the Sotfs version the blizzards are less frequent and you have more time inbetween, making the area actually tolerable (but not good)

@ArchetypeGotoh 5 лет назад

You always have so much HP on your characters... my first play through i had 15 vitality and pumped End, Dex and Int to 40, so i was amazed when i saw how high the HP bar could go

@oliman300 7 лет назад

What sort of settings do you have in Dsfix and also I heard that 60fps breaks the physics? or did you play it in 60fps jut for the cinematic effect of the video?

@D3th10rd 6 лет назад

Coming back to this in the Remaster after having suffered through the console era of this game, I am really enjoying a lot of the areas down low on the list. Blighttown actually looks quite beautiful when you can see the surroundings and New Londo looks absolutely stunning and ominous. While Lost Izalith still looks unfinished, it is now not as bad as before as the improved lighting seems to make it easier on the eyes. Bed of Chaos still is shiity as usual though.

@bryanzollinger5700 7 лет назад

@PrivateJoker0119 3 года назад

i love lost izalith man, but I already have a maxed out dragonslayer bow and Laito when I first went there so no issues. I also did the bed of chaos in one run lol

@b2k_scott106 7 лет назад

just filled out the survey, had to put lost Bastille at no.1. it's a area I will always remember and the lost sinner is such a badass boss.

@NuclearToxinify 7 лет назад

All the dark souls 2 areas are painfully average imo. There's a few bad ones like the gutter, and both Rat covenant areas, but there's not really anything great, even in the dlc.

@dragosvoinea8555 7 лет назад

NuclearxToxin Dark Souls 2 is average at everything, with one exception...Sir Alonne

@LivingAsABraker 7 лет назад

NuclearxToxin Come on, the DLCs were great, I loved those areas more that 90% of the main game areas

@JuanEsquivel-ex8nv 7 лет назад

NuclearxToxin what about drangelic castle

@RedRage2697 7 лет назад

Dragos Voinea what about fume knight :(

@NuclearToxinify 7 лет назад

Drangleic castle is, one of the better areas, but thats barely pushing above average. The DLC's really weren't that great, but maybe I've been spoiled by Artorias of the Abyss, which was amazing. They're still better than the base game, at the very least

@tonisimola9805 7 лет назад

Well, this really shows how much I disagree with the general opinions of the community. All the areas that are actually interesting and hostile gameplay-wise got a very low ranking, while those that are little more that settings where you can fight enemies on a plain flat field are yet to come... "If the solution isn't obvious, then the area is bad and bullshit."

@JasonDoe1000 7 лет назад

Same thing happened in the Demon's Souls are voting, the areas that are a bit harder and not straight forward were the last ones

@randomguy6679 7 лет назад

Asetoni 137 wait, you actually consider lost izalith and tomb of the giants well designed areas? hahahahahahaha

@randomguy6679 7 лет назад

Asetoni 137 not to mention "interesting"

@tonisimola9805 7 лет назад

randomguy6679 Lost izalith is rushed, that I can agree with. There are obvious design errors like missing textures and that lava that makes it impossible to see. The developers even said it's unfinished. The Tomb of Giants on the other hand is a very well done area. There is complexity to the level design, unique enemies and a mechanic that rewards exploration of previous areas. The oppressing darkness makes you take a different approach to combat. It is a well designed area, if only it were a bit longer...

@marcotulio3884 4 года назад

At the tomb of the giants i've actually memorized all the way to the boss's fog gate at a level that i could walk through the area without any light source.

@bradencosier80 7 лет назад

Hype! New vid time!

@hristokuymdjiev4225 7 лет назад

When I saw lost izalith at last spot I was happy. But then depths came after and I immediately realised that this list actually is not worst to best areas but just most frustrating ones to least.

@ezzerby 7 лет назад

Undead Parish is actually one of my favourite areas, primarily because of the church itself. There's something very affecting about fighting your way through an unassuming, innocent church. I'm pretty sure it's 90% of the reason I find empty churches and castles really atmospheric, and I often find myself thinking "Damn, this place could be a Dark Souls area."

@tylerchislet5125 5 лет назад

Definate frame drop in blighttown on xbox. I've experienced this many times but its seems to be in very specific spots of the area. Not even particularly in ganky areas either even running to quelog from the master key entrance. I do also enjoy the challenge of this area. Definaly a memorable area

@kennymcconnell1321 7 лет назад

good to see you up here again man. Though im curios as to where you have been on ps4 these days cause it says you havent been on there in 2 months. But ehh, your good man. Keep it real brother.

@tristanlaska7158 7 лет назад

I'm actually glad blightown is above quite a few other areas. I personally like the area. yes darts are annoying, yes the falls sucked, but as you said it really encompasses the feel of souls. If it wasn't for the frame problems the winding way down is pretty cool.

@eonixm2729 7 лет назад

Great vid as always, its a shame i cant join the streams lately since exams are a bitch

@jeremiecampeau-poirier2636 7 лет назад

in my opinion, Blighttown rank is legit, sure the poisonous enemies are annoying, but it's knid of straight forward, while you can get lost in Tomb of Giants, the Depths and some other areas, and if you die in these, it can be hard to get back your souls because you might lose your way again, also Blighttown can be linked to Firelink Shrine, so it's nice to know that you can get out of it

@sivadihcilam6836 7 лет назад

Honestly, I actually enjoy Demon Ruins and Lost Izalith. (Bed of Chaos, Asylum Demon reskin, and lava glow notwithstanding) I love how much of a badass I feel when I'm slaughtering Capra and Taurus Demons with 2-3 hits and I always enjoyed fighting in long forgotten/destroyed cities in videogames henceforth my love for the two areas. Also the lore of how Gwyn's silver turned black knights struggled and fought against the demons of Lost Izalith just makes me feel even more godlike when I'm ripping through them solo.

@allhandsondik7803 2 года назад

Hot take time, I'm a big fan of both the depths and Blighttown, The Depths has a great design, using its tight narrow turns to throw little jump scares that can kill you if you don't gather your barrings, the items are really good, the Basalisks sucks, but you only have to take them on when you fail a jump. And Blighttown has incredible design, a rickety, thrown together, DIY, hodge podge town with her only residents being the disgusting creatures left to rot and fester there, plus some good items, NPC's, Mildred, and a useful skip for speed runs or those who actuallyhate it. Plus both have great bosses.

@sodagirl1092 3 года назад

I find that Blighttown is more of a problem when you've just come out from taking out the Gaping Dragon and are either too overconfident or too unwilling to homeward bone back to the bonfire and re-do the Depths. Yeah, the first Blighttown bonfire is easy enough to get to, but when you've just been smacked around by the Gaping Dragon, it's a really rough way to reach your next checkpoint.

@JimJim354 2 года назад

As a person tomb of the giants wasn't a problem since I was a mage and I got the candle light spell or whatever it's called in blightown

@CD-Gaming 3 года назад

In defense of the Depths, it is a good place, especially early on, to both grind and farm Humanity Sprites and Eyes of Death for Nito's Gravelord Covenant! I'm also now going to defend the Demon Ruins: If you missed out on the Taurus' or Capra's Boss Weapons first time around it is a good place to nab them! Also: Sunlight Medals! Other than that, I agree pretty solidly! I died once to one of those dinosaur things in Lost Izalith and when I went back could not see my drop at all, not even after turning Brightness down! Plus it was a while after I first finally beat the Bed of Chaos that I learned about that hidden Bonfire! Yeah! Fun times!

@Archon331 5 лет назад

I only played remastered version and blighttown wasnt bad at all. I raged soo much in depths tho because I was not ready for the cruse, then I lost my souls so I had to farm them to cure my curse just to fell down into frogs and get cursed again and if you miss the shortcut its absolute hell to get back to the gaping dragon...
